Myths of Bastet Slot Review

Because the ancient Egyptians got their water from the Nile River, it’s no wonder that the crocs that called that place home chowed the long pig with great abandon.

The Egyptians, tired of becoming fodder for these reptiles and succumbing to cobras and scorpions, decided to worship these nasties. They hoped that their placation would soothe the angry little bastards.

I don’t know how that worked out for them, but we’re about to find out if we can harness the power of the crocodile, scorpion, and cobra in Myths of Bastet slot from Onlyplay.

Gameplay

Oooh, we’ve got ourselves a single-reel game here. Interesting! The action takes place on what looks like a scroll, set against a typically atmospheric background. It’s stunningly crafted so my aesthetic box has been ticked – thank you Onlyplay.

Unlike the design, though, the copywriting is atrocious. I saw pearlers such as “Myths of Bastet is an exiting Slottery game…” – I shit you not. Another one that made me choke on my coffee was: “In jugs you can get win, nothing, and cobra. If you get cobra, one life is taking away.” Lordy.

Looking at this game on a mobile phone – and you’ll have to keep it in landscape, else you’ll need a microscope to view the symbols – it looks really funky. I like it!

You’ll have 5 spaces that symbols can fill on that single reel. When you get into the Bonus game, it will make use of the 2 extra spots on the right.

I’m excited to get into playing this sucker so let’s get the stats out of the way and get on with it. We’re looking at an okay-ish RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. of 95.11% coupled with a medium volatility. The bet limits start at €0.50 and go up to €30.

OK, enough of that; let’s spin that reel!

Features

The Wild is a beautiful Sphynx cat rocking a headdress. In case you were wondering, Bastet was a goddess that took the form of a lion or later, a cat.

While playing on my phone, I filled the Progress bar, which kicked off the Cobra Progress Bonus game – but this can also happen for the crocodile and scorpion symbols.

Now, a more sinister background appeared with a snake at the top left of the screen. Also, there was a meter with “Free Spins Bonus Game” written across the top and this was positioned on the top right of the reel.

For every cobra I landed on the reel, my snake would glide towards the right. It kicked off the Free Spins Bonus game when it got to what looked like an arch or doorway.

What surprised me most was that I got an unlimited number of Free Spins and – check this out – no bet was needed or deducted from my balance!

What I saw now instead of the usual symbols, were jugs that landed and shattered to reveal either coins, a cobra, or nothing. For each cobra that was revealed, I lost a heart (a life) and when it reached zero, that heralded the end of the Bonus session.

But before I got kicked out, I scooped up a Big Win of €300, and 2 Big Wins worth €200 each! My total win was €1,920. Suh-weet!

It’s also possible to buy your way into the Cobra, Scorpion, or Crocodile Free Spins Bonus games – the price for each is the same.

Now if you get to the Scorpion Free Spins Bonus game, you’ll kick things off with 10 Free Spins and a 1x multiplier.

All scorpion symbols now add to the progress bar, and you can hit a max of 20 Free Spins and a 10x multiplier. When I used this feature, I collected a total win of €1,320.

As for the Crocodile Free Spins Bonus game, you’ll see a croc moving on top of the reel. Cool! If you match the moving croc with a golden croc on the reel, this transforms the reel symbol into a Wild and with that, you’ll be awarded Free Spins.

I scooped a Total Win of €1,080 when I used this option. Bear in mind though, that all these Buy features cost €1,200 so you can figure out the math.

Performance

Absolutely no issues, irrespective of which browser, or what device I was playing on.

Max Win

Okay, so this will be a bit disappointing to many – myself included – but the max win is only €30,930. The multiplier to bring in that top prize is 1,031x.

Conclusion

This is absolutely one of the coolest games I’ve played recently. I love the concept and how the bonus games have been created (and have been differentiated from each other).

I love the novelty of the single reel and how it looks on a mobile device.

I love the fact that you can buy into the Free Spins at any time.

I don’t even care that the copywriting is horrendous, or that I didn’t always make money. It’s just a brilliant way to spend your time.

It’s a thumbs up all round. Play it! That is all.
